One Year After, Nintendo Wii Wins the Gaming Consoles Battle

[Macmutt]

Look time has already proved over and over that the bigger hardware, graphical beast is not always the better choice or even the winner for that matter...Examples include
Nintendo NES won over NEC Turbo Grafx 16
Super Nes won over Atari Jaguar
Sony Playstation won over Nintendo 64
Sony PS-2 won over Microsoft Xbox

Now the most recent example of history repeating itself is the Nintendo Wii over the 360 and PS3.

Gameboy beat Lynx, Gameboy Colour beat Game Gear, Gameboy Advance beat N-gage, Nintendo DS beat PSP....
Graphics mean shit. It is tru that there are MANY MANY more great titles on 360 even over Wii atm I'd say, but I can get them all on PC and they play better on it anyway. PS3 has nothing, and Wii will be getting there by next year, no one wanted to gamble it this year, and I think we have already seen that they should of considering the success of it.
Im also going to admit that Wii is a good 'second option' console. I go to my PC for gaming more than Wii. But if Ive got people over or want something more engaging I'll play Wii.

Sony made a huge mistake by trying to introdue "blue-ray" to the consumers via PS3. This is a strat that Sony uses to try to rule the world (Beta, mini-discs, UMD, Blue ray)

Microsoft has a tendency to have their "consumer beta testing" which means releasing half ass'd things and then having consumers patch, upgrade or replace their original purchase (go to any gamestop and let them tell you how many X Boxes are usually returned)

Nintendo has been in the business while sony and microsoft were in diapers. They knew what people wanted: a game system that gave consumer a whole new experience. Much like they did when they introduced rumble pack technology and DS.

Nintendo Wins hands down, welcome back to where you belong Nintendo: #1
